Hi Folks

Leeds travel down to the Liberty Stadium on Tuesday evening to play recently relegated Swansea City.

The Swans have had a relatively good start to the season beating the blunts on the opening day, then edging past Preston followed by a goalless draw at St Andrews.

Graham Potter has cleared the decked in the Summer selling thirteen players with the likes of Ayew, Barley, Fabianski, Clucas and Mawson finding new clubs bringing in a revenue of over 20m.

Joel Asoro (Sunderland) and Declan John (Rangers) are the only new recruits leaving Swansea City fans frustrated with their wafer thin squad.

They do have a talented front line of Bony, Celina and McBurnie (who we were strongly linked with earlier in the Summer).


Having won all four games of the season, Bielsa has to decide whether to stick to the same starting line up that beat Rotherham, Derby and Stoke or give those players a rest and give the second string a chance to impress.

Jansson injured his back yesterday in training, and will not be travelling with the team.

Bielsa had his presser Monday morning. The members of the press were more interested in Bielsa's bucket then the team news.

Bielsa explained "You want me to tell you more than what it is. It's just a bucket. I have nothing to add. It's a comfortable bucket."

Welcome Swansea fans!!!!!

 

Jansson injured? Who'd have thought, eh? Usually it's about 70 mins into the match before he gets his 'injury'.

 

He actually got injured yesterday (Sunday). He pit his back out.

 

What about Cardiff fans?

 

You don't need an invite...

Lick arse...

 

Afternoon Taff

 

Aye, I'd be here anyway....

Now I promise not to take this matchday thread off topic. Now who do I want to win this one?

 

I'm interested in the 'Potter has had a clear out' statement....I think most of the clear out had happened before he arrived?

 

Afternoon sausageman. Glad you looked in on this forum and hope you'll stick around.

Swansea look all over the place at the moment trying to play Prem style without the players to do it.

Weak and inexperienced - they'll need all of Harry's magic to get all three points. Potter has a job on his hands.

 

Tyler well known Welshman Roberts has been dropped to the U23s and will not travel to Swansea

 

Good Afternoon to Matt and his posse
Bony is injured along with 2 other players so they are down to bare bones sorry to hear about Jernson and deeply sorry to hear about Jimmy Mac passing away he was a great player and servant to Burnley

 

What about them?...................................

 

Was he related to Sammy Mcilroy?

 

This forum is prone to profanities so as I know you as a gentle soul Phil, I will refrain from admonishing you.

We are Premier League, we are Premier League......

 

Anyway, as there was the risk of going off topic in my last post, I'll return to the match tomorrow.

Phil, do you think you have any chance of turning over a resurgent Leeds outfit, or are you still too weak after your sell off?

 

It will depend on whether Potter shores up the Midfield with Fer, and brings on Montero second half, as he will tear their RB to pieces, If he does that we will have a competitive chance to get something from the game, if he doesn't we will lose without doubt, as Leeds are looking to good for our young team.....................

 

I always liked Montero ever since we tried to get him a few years back before you did. Why isn't he getting a start?

Don't like Fer ever since he tried to score for Norwich when he was supposed to give the ball back after an injury, but he'd certainly have an impact in midfield for you.
